@@doorusthewalrus6903 ...Maybe you should do a little more research before you make a bogus video that is not even close to the truth. The Massacres that happened in Minnesota in 1862, including the one in New Ulm, were instigated by Confederate War General Albert Pike in order to kill as many protestants as possible why many of their men were off to war. It had nothing to do with broken treaties or what some of the towns people may have said. I'm a ditz on the computer, but if you care to learn a little truth on the mater there is a video on KZfaq called....The Hidden Hands Behind Albert Pikes Klu Klux Klan and Scottish Rite Freemasonry...By Adam 1984. It's only 13;15, but it will give you the truth and change a lot of what you now believe.

Yup your fellow white men are still doing massacres in america nothing has changed

This narrative is White washed history. I suggest reaching out to the native account to provide balance and perspective. Little Crow argued against this war until the very end.

I read somewhere that the Battle of the Little Bighorn has more books written about it than any other battle in history. It's also the battle we know the least about. Not sure if it's true, but I believe it. It's done to death. Plenty of interesting conflicts nobody talks about. The music (in order): -Channel theme is tune from Ry Cooder.

@@doorusthewalrus6903 Thanks. I have several Copland albums, including Billy the Kid. I'll have to look for the others.

Oh this stuff has been covered in film and TV too. It was very fashionable to show soldier raids after 1970 on TV. Films did it more after 1960, Winchester 76, etc..

Indeed

Lots of massacres from the other side that don't get a lot of notice as well.

It was covered in the mini-series Centennial, the character Col Skimerhorn was motivated to kill Tribes because his family was murdered by the Sioux in MN.

@@fordwk Skimerhorn was based on a real person, Colonel John M. Chivington, who commanded US Volunteers at the Sand Creek Massacre in Colorado, which resulted in the murder of an estimated 150 Cheyenne and Arapaho men, women, and children. It should be noted that Volunteers were not regular US Army soldiers, but militia troops called to active service during the War Between the States. Also, not every soldier under his command obeyed Chivington's senseless order to attack defenseless women and children. Captain Silas Soule not only defied him, but even testified against him later at a court of inquiry, despite murder threats. In the end Chivington was forced to resign his commission and Colorado's territorial governor was dismissed. Two months after his testimony Soule was ambushed and killed by two assassins. He wounded the man who shot him, Charles Squier, but Squier later escaped federal custody when his own captor was presumed murdered in a staged drug overdose. Squier eventually fled to Central America where he met a most ignoble end, having both of his legs crushed in a railroad accident, which led to gangrene and his death in 1869.

Yes it's very disappointing. 38 Dakota Indians were hanged

@@shawnmichaelduncan5951 Indeed. Colonel Sibley ordered over 300 to be hanged. It was the direct intervention by President Abraham Lincoln that kept the number so low. Despite this, at least one of the Sioux pardoned by Lincoln was hung anyway.

Even if they tried to teach the things they should, they couldn't cover everything.

Definitely!!!! They sure as hell don't teach us this in school or the fact that Indians often sacrificed people to ther gods and some of them even practiced cannabilsm. The Indian world was freaking vicious and for the most part needed replaced.

"The treaties of 1851 had promised the Dakota lump sum payments in exchange for land, but eleven years later the Dakota had still not received the funds....Most of the money was given directly to creditors contrary to treaty terms and to federal law.” Carol Chomsky, “U.S.-Dakota War Trials”, Stanford Law Review, November 1990

My ancestor was Gideon Hollister Pond, brother of Samuel W Pond. He knew Little Crow during a mission and taught him English.

Thank you for sharing. Was his property and finance taken from him?

@@apostlekelley3618 Faribault's wealth was hit hard by the "economic panic of 1857." He also had several businesses that failed, resulting in further loss of income. With a negative cash flow, he ended up asking the government to remove the Indians from his land, as he could no longer afford their care. He ended up selling his property and living with family.

When you narrate that diary I hope you tell the other side. The Native American side of the story. It is sad that it happened but it would have all been avoided if they would have left their land alone try not to push them off their land and rape their women and taken all their food .

Upper and lower Sioux agency Natives in Minnesota on their reservations would disagree.

To clarify - Chippewa is the white's mangling of the name 'Ojibwe". and they considered joining in the fight against US Govt, and wisely declined. I'm pretty sure had they joined in thet would have gone aftefr Govt. agencies and propert, and WOULD NOT have slaughterd 400 + unarmed settlers. It would still have gone badly for them, however.

Same in the ,80s.

It’s still not taught in schools

Is that Minnesota State History or general history living elsewhere? I grew up in south Alabama, pretty far from MN, and I knew about the Minnesota Indian war in 62, the Chivington persecution raid and the great Mankato hanging during Lincoln's 1st term. We learned of the Fort Mims massacre by the redstick Creeks on river settlers forted up in 1813 and the following defeat a year later at Horseshoe Bend. They followed that in 11th grade US history with listing the major battles and raids in all of the US territories from 1780 to 1890. Kids back then 70s, were more interested I guess. These raids and the two big wars after 1861 were mentioned in the Little House series of books.

HELLS BELLS , i could write a book then teach an entire course of what we wernt taught back then ,esp CAT-LIC schooling

Graduated from a Minnesota high school in 2003, and this was not talked about. Minnesota history wasn’t discussed after 5th grade, and the history up to that point was just very local stuff like fort snelling, and how St. Paul, the state capital, was nearly named pigs eye. Pigs eye lived under the bridge and beat the shit out of everyone, like bill the butcher. Why was anything Indian wars or anything Indian not discussed? I don’t know, can only speculate

So cool; do you still live in MN? I have connections to New Ulm as well, love the history

@@muddyhotdog4103 . yeah..only there are tactics the U.S. began to teach at west point..or any other military branch..in the case with Little Crow and the Santee..decoy operations were especially studied.

The life native Americans, like nearly all peoples whos' lives were marked by almost continuous warfare between themselves and with other tribes who all either got really good at it or disappeared from history. It stands to reason that those tribes that thrived were able to defend their camps and successfully defeat other tribes for land, slaves and prosperity; there were no prize for second place. Children endlessly listened to warriors recount battles (and tactics) and played war until they could join their elders at the real thing. Anyone who does not understand and appreciate the war expertice of surviving tribes like the Souix while Europeans were still slapping each other with satin gloves and following Marquis of Queensbury rules in combat is missing the point here. Thousands of British and their professional Hessian fighters were stunned and beaten bloody by settlers who simply adopted the tactics of the Eastern tribes. Washington did NOT cross an ice-choked river at midnight to attack early on Christmas morning using tactics learned in the British war college he and some of his commanders attended before the Revolution. The surrendering Brits were mortified at the savage termidity and lack of social graces of the attack under those unfair and ghastly tactics the Americans learned from the indians.

Natives were brilliant tacticians.The commanche are well known for superior horsemanship and their tactical prowess.

A timeless strategy for kids throughout the years! The boogyman can't harm you under the covers. Jocularity aside, that must have been terrifying for him. Thank God it was a Sunday!

"meetoo" lies

Me too. I’m curious of a couple things now: 1) do they teach this in the reservations? 2) why is something like this, so local, not taught? We learned about fort snelling, and even then it was in relation to the British. And we learned about St paul and how it was nearly named pigs eye, after the brut that lived under a bridge and beat the shit out of people

Inkpaduta was my grandfather. Did you know why the Wahpekute' were pushed to do those things? I'm not saying it was right what they did but they were on someone's home already. They shouldn't have been there. Settlers were killing his family and his people with no regard. He went to Fort Dodge to try to reconcile but nothing happened. His family was again killed.

@@kendelldecoteau8438 First of all, how wonderful to me you, even via FB and certainly over the circumstances. Yes, in fact, I have been aware of most of the reason that drove the Conflict as I chose NOT to accept the easy assumption that the indians just decided to go to war with those settlers. Could we exchange email addresses, etc., as I would love to settle and exchange info, oral family recollections and more? I would be honored to be part of a greater understanding of the events leading up to the war, both for my family members and possibly yours. My understanding was that rations and a payment were due to the tribe that were not accomplished and that the brother of the man who settled my city, La Crosse, WI refused to furnish food and other necessities, breaking the treaty and causing people to face starvation and disease in the coming winter. This latest act was merely the latest slight/insult/ breaking of treaty guarantees by the BIA and government representitives after your nation ceded wnership and occupancy of a great swath of ancestral land, agreed to live in a limited area and under government control PLUS turn in all firearms making hunting for subsistance almost impossible. All that plus unknown daily slights and insults inescapeably drove your ancestors to violently retaliate against villages and settlers who were understandably viewed as antagonists too. My grandmother was told that our ancestors traded with, had almost daily contact with families and tribal members and had developed relationships and had the ability to discuss trades and other interactions with tribal members. When my grandma first told me the story her great grandmother, a 10 year old girl at the time of the attack at their cabin we were in the barn hand milking the half dozen cows grandma still owned about 60 years ago. After I had posed every question my teen-aged mind could think of I returned to talk with her about the family legacy but also what I learned about the indians' plight up to the attacks. My grandma was shocked to hear about the bands' treatment and were facing starvation and recall that she finally able to better understand the attacks. As a mother who suffered gringing poverty even before the Depression that just got worse for her family as the Government enforced programs most often hurt as many families as it tried to helped, I am sure she instantly understood and identified with at least some of the your ancestors' anger, fear and desperation and most certainly the fear of watching your children sufferand die on the whim of a politician. I hope you will consider email contact with me. We share a common set of events but few if any of the direct and indirect results; I hope we might enlighten and inform family and others of the fuller picture of those times. Would you agree that as people who gather our families' own history and insure our descendants hear the best version we are able to give, that we owe both ancestors and descendants a chance for a fuller, truer account? I look forward to your response!

That'd be fascinating. Sadly, I know precious little about Indian inter-tribal wars. A good channel for this is 'History at The OK Corral.' He's absolutely fantastic for inter-tribal history!

“The Sioux were still a hunting society in the early nineteenth century. All evidence considered, it seems likely that 50 percent of those living in 1650 were children. This would boost the total Sioux population in the Mississippi watershed to about 38,000 at white contact....Theoretically, at least, epidemics do much to explain the general decline in Sioux populations from 38,000 at white contact to 25,000 in 1805,....” Gary Clayton Anderson, Kinsmen of Another Kind: Dakota-White Relations in the Upper Mississippi Valley, 1650-1862 (Minnesota Historical Society Press, 1997), p. 19 and p. 22.

Telling it like it was is good history. Not enough was told in this story about why the Sioux rose up. What a shame that Black American history, again, events that happened, is being censored by states that don't want to acknowledge massacres of black citizens. I'm sure this uprising and massacre would be readily taught in these states because they were white. If all these victims were black , and were killed by white men, this historical event would never see the light of day in states run by Republicans,

The rest of the remaining 6,000 plus Dakota were driven out of Minnesota by Sibley's troops and the incentive of a general 1863 state legislative scalp bounty for their death - the starting price was $25 per Dakota scalp, then $75. By the fall of 1863 the state bounty was $200 per scalp, “but by then most Dakotas had vanished from Minnesota.” Professor Mary Lethert Wingerd, North Country: The Making of Minnesota (University of Minnesota Press, 2010), p. 330.
